"American Horror Story" will be back next year (later this year?) with a new tale of woe and misery and goodness knows what else. Tonight thought the 'Asylum' tale ends and it ends with some sort of awfulness. Okay, the thing is that we don't know that for certain, we just kind of assume that it will. If we were ending this story we would do it with some sort of awfulness. Why? Because that's the way we think horror stories always ought to end.

A group of patients see the perfect opportunity to attempt a daring escape as a violent storm manages to cause chaos for the forces keeping them imprisoned in the asylum; Sister Jude finds that her past continues to haunt her.

A patient at the asylum claims to be an iconic figure from the past and she manages to reveal some of the shocking truths about Arden's past; Kit is surprised to learn of the reason why one of the patients at Briarcliff was admitted.

People, there are not that many horror shows on television. Yes, as stars age and the skin on their face gets pulled ever more tight, there is unquestionably an element of horror involved, but that's not what we're talking about. We are also not talking about truly scare tendency comedies have to turn into dramas once they hit a certain point. No, we are talking real and true horror series here, there aren't many on television, "American Horror Story" is one, and tonight is Halloween. It is pretty much required that you watch... right after you egg the house down the block.

Subtitled "Asylum," the new season of "American Horror Story" premieres tonight. Perhaps it should be called "Another American Horror Story" or "A Totally Different American Horror Story," but ours is not to reason why. No, ours is to sit down, watch, and get totally and completely freaked out. The new season stars Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Zachary Quinto, James Cromwell, and Joseph Fiennes. We have our personal picks about just who is going to scare us the most, but it's totally based on speech and mannerisms, we have no idea what to expect from the tale.

This FX series hasn't necessarily garnered a great critical response, but it does have many a fan swooning. In fact, many a fan is swooning to the point where FX has already renewed the show for a second season. Where exactly the show will end its first season, however, we can't quite say. Tonight's episode is an extra-long one though so hopefully the horror will be more horrendous, the evil more vile and the weird sexual stuff... weirder. Whatever may happen though, we do expect it to be big and boisterous, if nothing else, "American Horror Story" doesn't feel like the kind of show which goes softly into the off-season.
